I would probably tell you something like "dude we played Operation Flashpoint and we KNOW the ways of warfare" but the truth is that I died a lot. I died and I died until I found a way. I took out the first bmp with the satchel and another vehicle with the rpg.
Then I threw a few grenades down the hill and killed a few guys and used the destroyed vehicles as cover to kill the rest. I had to chase a truck to the next village too.
But that's the thing... We cannot tell you how we did it. Even if we do, you may try it and it won't work.
Which is a realization that becomes apparent if you know have played Operation Flashpoint.
Incredible!Actually, that makes me respect this game even more. I really enjoy such sandbox games as there really isn't just one way of doing things.
I just died again 5 mins ago but I accidentally found out that I can blast a tree so it lay across the road preventing the vehicles from passing. I am going to try laying 3 sachets in front of the fallen tree and set them off all at one when the whole convoy gets stuck in front of the tree...hehehehe
Explore the possibilities dude.
That's what Arma is about. Remember: If you kill the drivers you can take the wheel and chase those bastards around, block their escape rout or just drive the trucks in the water to destroy them.
OMG! hahahahah looks like we are truly limited only by our creativity then!Originally Posted by Master gamawa
you don't know the half of it man... Seriously the more you play the more you will discover. You are gonna have to improvise to get through this game.
If fact the campaign will force you to think on your feet with more than a few ways.
I failed this mission a number of times without even seeing the convoy!
So finally I checked the map and saw that there is another, even more direct road that runs behind the village you are supposed to setup in.
The next try, I set up my satchel charges in the village, then I set all the mines on the other road, then came back to the village to wait.
Sure enough, I hear a boom in the distance, so I load up on 136s and jump in the truck, just in time to find the trucks backed up behind the mine-destroyed bmp.
A bit of luck with the the rockets, and mission complete!
Even though my scout never gave me the 'convoy coming' signal!
INteresting variation, but makes total sense.
NICE!
Anyway, I really suck at ARMA... I can't even complete any of the defending or attacking mini missions in the armory! hahahaha!
Funny, sometimes the infantry riding get killed, and sometimes they manage to make it off and come after you. I also notice that if one truck gets blasted the rest will drop their guys to come hunt you. Nice!NICE!

Yeah, those missions from the armory arent easy, I have beaten a few just by being super careful and paranoid, but they are definitely stacked to make them difficult.
Does those trucks actually know how to avoid mines??? I laid 3 mines and none got triggered!
